Team Preview of AFG vs NZ Test Match Prediction 2024

Afghanistan welcomed the New Zealand team to Greater Noida to play the only test match. Still, it is going to be hard for the groundsman to prepare a good pitch because of the weather conditions, as the rain is pouring down constantly.

The former Indian cricket team batting coach Vikram Rathour joined the New Zealand Test squad as the support staff to guide them in the test match against Afghanistan, and also, the Sri Lanka legend Rangana Herath replaced Saqlain Mushtaq in the New Zealand support staff.

New Zealand will be looking to win the match as they are in third place in the World Test Championship, with a winning percentage of 50%. They won three games and lost three, which was their last three against Australia, where they lost all of those matches in March.

Rashid Khan is not included in the Afghanistan test squad as the Afghanistan board doesn’t think he is the perfect pick for the team in the test match.
